Asphalt Green: thinking activity differently

New York City is rich in organizations dedicated to fitness but few make it their mission to bring activity through classes, recreational leagues and competitive leagues to ALL New Yorkers. Asphalt Green is one such organization. How does it work? Two ways:

A fee-based youth sports and aquatics program curriculum that is built on three tiers—classes, recreational leagues and competitive teams. These classes teach fundamental skills and then their recreational leagues give athletes the opportunity to put these newly learned skills into action. Finally, players progress to Asphalt Green’s competitive teams where they compete against the best.

As a nonprofit, Asphalt Green is committed to bringing the same high-quality instruction of their fee-based programs to their free community programs.Asphalt Green delivers free and low-cost community programs to nearly 31,000 children annually in schoolyards, gymnasiums and pools across New York City. In addition, they provide scholarships for their fee-based programs to talented individuals with financial need.
